What if meditation isn't about clearing your mind at all?

In this re-released episode of Roots of the Rise, Sarah Hope explores Heart-Based Meditation—a simple yet powerful practice that has transformed her life for more than a decade. Unlike many meditation techniques that focus on controlling thoughts, Heart-Based Meditation welcomes thoughts as part of the process and teaches a practical integration tool called Heart-Centering, helping you bring greater calm, clarity, and resilience into everyday life.

Sarah shares her personal journey with meditation, the benefits she has experienced through consistent practice, and why this method continues to be her "ride-or-die" tool after ten years of daily use. You'll learn how meditation can support stress reduction, emotional regulation, improved relationships, greater self-awareness, better sleep, and a more grounded response to life's challenges.

Whether you're completely new to meditation, have struggled to maintain a practice, or are looking for a meditation method that creates meaningful change beyond the cushion, this episode offers a refreshing perspective on what meditation can be and how it can help you become more peaceful, resilient, and heart-centered in everyday life.
